Can Proxycurl scrape LinkedIn profile connections?

No, Proxycurl is not able to fetch connections of users for two reasons:

We only scrape public LinkedIn profiles, and public LinkedIn profiles do not have connection information.
Even if we do scrape private profiles, connection information is not shown on LinkedIn. In other words, connection data cannot be scraped.
